A good friend (or client) of yours has sadly passed away
and has named you as an executor of his Will.What do you do now?Must you act?

It is always flattering to be trusted with such a
responsible role.In some respects, you
may feel morally obligated to act.However, it is always worth taking some time out to think carefully
about what you are taking on before you say yes; something that a solicitor can
help you do, as we regularly deal with estate administrations and know what
they really entail.
